From: TERRY IRONS
Subject: Warning! and a Request
Once again I have asked members of my language & society class to join
our discussion group.
I have asked them first to observe the discussion on the list. But I
have also required as a class assignment that they either respond to a
query or post a query about dialect and language variation.
Some of their observations may be naive, simple-minded, unfounded, or
even wrong. I ask that you bear with them in your replying. If things
get out of hand with some, I will address that issue separately.
To those who have immediate concerns, I suggest that inviting students to
join our discussions is crucial to the future health of our discipline.
Virtually, Terry
